Feedspot has identified us as one of the world’s 100 best transit blogs, but more remarkably, we’re at #4 out of these 100, after the World Bank’s blog and two big industry new blogs, Mass Transit and METRO Magazines. That means we can call ourselves the world’s best blog that’s not part of a big institution or journalistic enterprise, and that’s totally self-funded without advertising. Yes, this blog is lightly associated with my (little) firm, but I still do almost all the writing, and it’s still largely my personal work.
There are lots of awards out there, but this feels like a real evaluation, based on a mixture of editorial quality and influence.
So, cool! Thanks! This is nice gesture!
Congrats! I’d call that a win for sure.
Indeed, congratulations. Well deserved!
It’s especially significant in light of how many people are now involved with these topics. I enjoy reading the comments, which I can’t say about many other sites.
It’s a well deserved accolade, IMHO. I doubt you could survive in the modern political landscape, but you’re exactly the kind of rational, fact-based person I’d vote for if I could.
Indeed, thoroughly deserved!
A well deserved honour. You provide a great public service by educating people about the complexities of public policy and public transport decision making. It case you can’t tell from my spelling; yes I am Canadian.
Well deserved! I really enjoyed your presentation in Providence last month.
Congrats!
However my signing up with Feedspot required a credit card for the first year’s free service, which I thought odd.
So I searched its reviews and reputation and discovered that they do some unwanted things like using signups’ RSS feeds to write their own blog. One reviewer stated “All of my content from my blog page was copied in full to your site without my permission or knowledge before hand”.

Fully deserved recognizement Jarrett! Your blog is a huge source of information and a fixed and often clicked feature of my “favourites” bar. Compliments!
The blog deserves the award. It is one of my favorites for its sensible, civilized, informative discussions, not to mention that I am a public transit advocate and fascinated by the subject.
Congratulations – I always find your postings to be interesting and stimulating. Like Luca above, this is a fixture in my favorites bar, and I look forward to each new entry.
Not only congratulations, but as a JWU grad am also saying double congratulations…for being both a transit blog, and the tuition-free Jarrett Walker University.
Indeed, congratulations. Well deserved!
The article is great and very detailed, easy to understand, I also read many other articles and I found your article has helped me a lot of information, thank you for sharing.
